Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomLovely place to have a caravan. There was everything you would need. A nice decking area with a bbq. Only Five minutes in the car to Stonehaven. Kirsty was especially helpful recommending taxis and the best take aways.

United KingdomOverall okay but not very happy won’t return. We left one night early for the following reasons: There were no staff on site and those adults at the equestrian centre didn’t make themselves known to us so we couldn’t discuss this. The caravan was as pictured but not clean. The microwave was so dirty, we couldn’t use it. The crockery and cutlery were 50% unclean so all needed to be re washed. In the end we resorted to eating out. The sheets were covered in hair and dark hair (we are all blonde!), my husband would only sleep on top of the bed not in it. The bedside tables were filthy and covered in dog hair. The towels smelt damp and could only use half of them as it was very strong. The bathroom was clean but lots of hair in the shower. The toilet roll had been dropped in something yellow so we didn’t use that either and bought our own. The sofa and tv area was comfy but again not as clean as you would expect. I have stayed in these kind of places about four times a year for 5 years and never mad a complaint before, so I know what to expect but sadly this isn’t it.
Lovely location, excellent views. Close to amenities.

United KingdomAwful. I should have known as I always check reviews but didn’t this time. It was dirty. Cutlery, plates, glasses etc, filthy. Outdated. There was one fork? For three of us? Never again.
At least we were warm even though the window in the bedroom didn’t even shut fully. That’s the only positive I can give.

United KingdomArrived and parked in front of a caravan. To be told to move my car as I parked at the wrong one and someone was arriving tomorrow at that caravan. They were side by side. So we all got back in and I move my car 2 feet!! The ppl never arrived for 29 hours!!! Step out your car into mud!! Right round to the side of the caravan. Not great when you arrive in a brand new car! Will need to get it valeted now after 3 people and a dog were in and out all weekend. The caravan is very old. The seats are very uncomfortable. To the point even the children were complaining. The place could be doing with a good clean. The cutlery drawer is filthy. A lot of dirt on walls. Vents not cleaned. The bathroom wasn’t the cleanest either. The windows are so drafty. The blind in the bedroom moves with the draft and in the morning would wake you every 2 secs with the day light pouring in. Wanted to measure water to make my daughter noodles but no jug.
Good Wi-Fi

United KingdomNothing we even had good weather
The on site facilities with horses and everything were excellent we were even able to watch a horse jumping competition it was great. The staff were excellent so friendly and would do anything for you. Only five minutes into the beautiful wee town of Stonehaven and Aberdeen only about twenty minutes up the road. Couldn’t fault this site in anyway as two grans with two grandchildren it was excellent.

United KingdomThe location of this place is great if you don't mind driving back and forth to stonehaven. As a family we walked for around 30min down to stonehaven Harbour however you need to carefully cross the A9 and then we got a taxi back at night time. The caravan itself does not reflect the photos. It is very outdated and to be honest smells. The toilet is really not fit for purpose. The actual toilet system top bit is broken and when you flush it, really smells and the shower is like a hose. We actually used the shower and the toilet In the bothy ouwith the caravan due to the cleanliness of the caravan toilet. It is such a shame as the location (farm/horse riding location) is fab and the people who own it are so lovely howver the caravan needs to be updated. This place has so much potential and it would be lovely if there was new caravans on site. When we got into the caravan we began looking at other places for the weekend due to how outdated the caravan is and the toilet in the caravan. I am a bit concerned that this is actually allowed to be on booking.com sadly we won't be back due to the caravan howver as I say the family who owned the facilities are fantastic and were helpful.
